PAD Strikes Again
I try to visit Pipes by George at least once a week since I work a few blocks away. Yesterday I left work early and decided to visit. George just got in a shipment of pipes, and since I never leave empty handed, I bought a meerschaum. It is a Paykoc that I have decided to dedicate to aromatic...- FurCoat

Six More Pipes Added to the Stable
First off I want to thank @Ahi Ka for giving me the opportunity to aquire these wonderful pipes from his collection. It has taken me awhile with my busy schedule to get these gems cleaned up. Most of you know how much I love American blue collar pipes, especially Dr. Grabow's, so these... -
Family Addition
My daughter has been begging for a dog since forever so we decided to visit a local rescue. Meet Rosey, a 36 pound beagle blue heeler mix. She is an absolute sweetheart even if she is stubborn as hell. House trained, great in the car and she gets along with the cat, which is good, as Tiger is a...- FurCoat

PAD Strikes Again
I couldn't help myself when I saw it. I got this Italian made, meerschaum lined Dr. Grabow from MBSD. The pipe is gorgeous, at least to me, and came in great condition with some swag stickers, magnet and personalized note. The purchase was easy, shipping was fast and I couldn't be happier with... -
Kaywoodie Help
A gentleman I work with is a pipe smoker and got his grandfather's pipes. There are three Kaywoodie pipes in the mix that we need help dating. They have the white circle with black clover on top of the stem and all three have 4 hole stingers. A round about date as to when these were produced... -
A Special Pipe Aquisition
My uncle came to visit for a week from NOLA over Thanksgiving and during his visit he got a gander at my pipe collection. He told me that somewhere in his study, he had one of my grandfather's pipes and would I be interested in it. Would I? Well the pipe arrived today. My grandfather was my hero... -
Ram's Horn No 2
I found this old plug cutter and I had to snatch it up. It set me back 40 bucks but I just love this thing. The fact that it's from NC sealed the deal. Taylor Brothers is still in business but we know them as American Snuff Co. Some of the old paint survived and I will be restoring it to it's...- FurCoat

Aquired a New Lot of Old Pipes
I aquired, or more accurately, saved from the trash heap, these old pipes. I gave 20 bucks for the lot. There's nothing really special here, but I have a soft spot for these American classics. Blue collar pipes smoked by blue collar Americans. The pipes are in fair shape, minor tooth chatter... -
Linkmans Dr Grabow
I picked this up for 5 bucks. It is a select grain, presmoked, shape #8424 with pat.#1896800 . The pipe is in great shape with minor handling marks and no tooth chatter on the stem. The stem has the spade on top of the stem which dates it from 44 to 53. I'm curious about the silver spade on the... -
Found Some Old Pipes
Not that old, but old enough. I noticed these some time ago at a friend's house. Told him if he ever wanted to get rid of them, I would take them off his hands and today was the day. He bought them new and smoked them a few times before he decided pipe smoking wasn't for him. Three Dr Grabow... -
Folklore
I happened to be looking up a blend on TR and saw a flyer for the rerelease of Folklore on 01-25-23. I'm surprised no one else posted this sooner. I'm not getting any this go around so I figured would get the madness started.- FurCoat

All I Know is, It's French
I bought an unsmoked estate pipe from Blue Room Briars a few weeks back. I've wanted a cavalier and this one is pretty unique. It is a g Company made in France and according to BRB, it was manufactured during WWII. I haven't been able to pull up anything on g Company. I figure it's a second of... -
Birthday Pipes
Tomorrow is my birthday and since my wife (emergency nurse) works a 12 hour shift at the hospital tomorrow, she gave me my birthday presents early. A Savinelli Bacco 904 ks and an AKB. I'm a lucky man. -

Jubilaeums
I noticed that 4th Generation has released another limited blend. The description is a Virginia flake lighty topped with honey and licorice. To me at least, this sounds delicious. Like Peaty Kentucky, the price is a bit up there at 48 bucks for 3.5 ounces. It may very well be worth it, but...- FurCoat

The Gladiators are Back
The Isle of Man TT is back for 2022. Will Dunlop regain the throne? Does McGuinness still have it to over take Joey's record? I'm just glad that the gladiators are back. I miss Guy Martin on the circuit. Live streaming starts May 28th.- FurCoat

That Time of the Year
It's Christmas time and no one has mentioned that time honored favorite delicacy we all wait for all year...fruit cake. I for one actually love the stuff, along with my family, and am on the last 2 pounds of the eight pounds I got this year. My grandparents made it homemade and I have yet to...- FurCoat
